Context:
These two pictures were components of a large altarpiece probably dedicated to the Virgin. Spanish works like these, often feature elaborate treatment of the gold background, evident here in the exuberant raised decoration (called pastiglia) in the skies and haloes, as well as other details such as the vase of lilies in the Annunciation.The NativityAs a symbol of his domination over the world, Christ holds an orb in His left hand; with His right, He bestows a blessing. Christ lies on folds of the Virgin's cloak as she kneels above Him in rapt adoration. Using the wattle fence almost as a church pew, two shepherds express humble piety; one removes his hat, and the other clasps his mittened hands in prayer.
